A Clinical trial by Williams E, et al. that treated 52 adults with two types of Lactobacillus and two types of Bifidobacteria for a period of 8 weeks found that the probiotic supplements made significant reductions in the severity of IBS symptoms.  Individuals on probiotics saw a reduction in days with pain, and reported substantially improved quality of life and satisfaction with bowel habits.
